Re: Youtube app - cannot navigate before it crashes out....

My standard NowTV box came today, just the bare box no power, remote etc and I am pleased to say its working a treat!

I thought my Smart power adapter would fit, but found out the plug is too large, luckily I had an apapter laying around that fits. I may still order an official one though for the sake of £3.95

The YouTube App is the version before the one that got updated on the Smart box, so it has 3 thumbnails across now instead of 2 which the newer version has. I am hoping that they don't update this version for the non smart box, otherwise I will be back where I started.

I think its £6 well spent but I obviosuley still hope they sort out the Smart box though, whether its a ROKU update or YouTube.

I'm having problems with the smart box and using YouTube too. It used to work without any crashes on the older app versions but for a couple of weeks it has been terrible. Sometimes i can play a video and then I'll go to watch another and I'll either get a black screen or a green static type one. The only way out of it seems to be to hold the home button for a few seconds and let go. The box then restarts but trying the same video again always causes the same issue.

Please can this be fixed as a matter of urgency, even if it means reverting back to the old app version until the current one gets fixed?

Well my 4200SK non-smart box updated last night to the new version of YouTube and thankfully it still works. Its the new look interface, but it still has the same number of thumbnails across the top as the old one so I am please about that. The version number is ea86ea7b.

Anyone know @Tony-D if the Smart box has been updated to get this working version, or is it pure luck that it works on the non-smart box?

I'll check the smart box when i'm home tonight @Harters Hopefully have some good news lol. No luck involved

Re: Youtube app - cannot navigate before it crashes out....

The smart box is still not working properly on the YouTube App (just tried a software up date) where the YouTube App is showing version 1.0 build 70500252 under the My Apps page and App version 23d8c2fc when you go into the YouTube App settings page.
